Looks nice and clean. Could use some soot stain imho.

The Jug didn't soot that much because of it's turbocharger. The exhaust is actually the bump in front of the tail wheel. The openings onder the cowling where only opened during start up of the engine. When the turbocharger was at the right pressure they would close again. I wanted to add some visual interest to my Jug as well but it just wouldn't soot up. 🙁
